The body belongs to 26-year old Ioli Hadjilyra who comes from Nicosia. She was found on Wednesday in Brisbane’s Kalinga Park, but her identity was confirmed today.
The death of the talented sketch artist is being treated as a possible homicide, says the Police. Next to her body sketches were found. “We’re not sure whether they were in her possession or if they’ve been dropped,” detective inspector Tim Trezise told media on Thursday.
He said Hadjilyra lived in South Brisbane – on the opposite side of the city to where she was found.
“That’s one of the mysteries at the moment, how she got to Kalinga Park and why she was on that side of town,” Trezise said.
He also said “an attempt appeared to have been made to disguise her location in the bushes”.
Police are continuing their searches and are appealing to the public to come forward if they know something.
